Rescued Series No 126
Sold!
I was sad to see this guy fly off to his new home a couple weeks ago. Some paintings are harder to part with than others. I thought this guy looked like a wrestler or an entertainer of sorts. Maybe he performs in a circus act? Neither of those things interest me irl, but I felt an attachment to this guy.
Last week, I voted early.
I hope you do the same.
Your anger? It’s telling you where you feel powerless. Your anxiety? It’s telling you that something in your life is off balance. Your fear? It’s telling you what you care about. Your apathy? It’s telling you where you’re overextended and burnt out. Your feelings aren’t random, they are messengers. And if you want to get anywhere, you need to be able to let them speak to you and tell you what you really need.

Maude’s reaction to Gussy’s crazy mischief
is the same facial expression he gives me 100x a day.

Dried up acrylic paint
One of the reasons I love gouache so much is
because I never have this issue with gouache.
Yes, it costs quite a bit more, but there’s no waste.
Unless you drop your palette on the floor, anyway.
Oops!!!
🤣
My husband said..”don’t clean it up!
I know what to do”, and he grabbed a piece of paper.
And just like that,
he made this lovely abstract painting with it.
🤣 🖼️ 🧑🏻🎨
And, one of the floor, also.
Clean up was a breeze, though.
A couple swipes with the mop,
and it looked like it never happened.

I still have some of these masquerade mask paintings from a series I did a few years back. I don’t think I’ll be painting more of them, definitely not this year anyway.

Things worth sharing that I watched recently:
New York City’s Controversial Fire Hydrant Fish Pond – I wonder what happens to the fish when the weather is turning colder?
Otters Super Excited for Huge Salmon – oooh, the sound of them eating!! 🤣 I watched it 3x..sooooo cute!!
They Ruined My Hometown – Don’t Let This Happen to Yours (Burlington, VT)
So sad what’s happening in this little city. I haven’t been to Burlington in years, so I had no idea it had declined & so rapidly.
Update: Peter had to take the original video down, and has a new video explaining why.
When kids become content on social media | DW Documentary – I’m glad I made the decision years ago to keep my family & personal life off social media.
That’s gonna do it for me today. I hope you’re well. Please stay safe out there. I’ll see you next time.
Thanks for stopping by.
